In this paper, we study a type of Riemannian manifold, namely quasi Ricci symmetric manifold. Among others, we show that the scalar curvature of a quasi Ricci symmetric manifold is constant. In addition if the manifold is Einstein, then its Ricci tensor is zero. Also we prove that if the associated vector field of a quasi Ricci symmetric manifold is either recurrent or concurrent, then its Ricci tensor is zero.

The aim of the present paper is to study certain recurrent properties of LP-Sasakian manifolds. Here we first describe Ricci ${\eta}$-recurrent LP-Sasakian manifolds. Further we study semi-generalized recurrent and three dimensional locally generalized concircularly ${\phi}$-recurrent LP-Sasakian manifolds and got interesting results.

In this paper, we firstly define the Ricci mean value along the gradient vector field of the Ricci potential function and show that it is non-negative on a compact Ricci soliton. Furthermore a Ricci soliton is Einstein if and only if its Ricci mean value is vanishing. Finally, we obtain a compact Ricci soliton $(M^n,g)(n{\geq}3)$ is Einstein if its Weyl curvature tensor and the Kulkarni-Nomizu product of Ricci curvature are orthogonal.

In the present paper, we study three-dimensional f-Kenmotsu manifolds admitting the Schouten-Van Kampen connection. We study the concircular curvature tensor of a three-dimensional f-Kenmotsu manifold with respect to the Schouten-Van Kampen connection. Finally, we have cited an example of a three-dimensional f-Kenmotsu manifold admitting Schouten-Van Kampen connection which verify our results.

In this paper, we show that a recurrent manifold with harmonic curvature tensor is locally symmetric and that an Einstein and conformally recurrent manifold is locally symmetric. As a consequence, Einstein and recurrent manifolds must be locally symmetric. On the other hand, we have obtained some results for a (conformally) recurrent manifold with parallel vector field and also investigated some results for a (conformally) recurrent manifold with concircular vector field.

The main object of the present paper is to study conformal Ricci soliton on paracontact metric (k, 𝜇)-manifolds with respect to Schouten-van Kampen connection. Further, we obtain the result when paracontact metric (k, 𝜇)-manifolds with respect to Schouten-van Kampen connection satisfying the condition $^*_C({\xi},U){\cdot}^*_S=0$. Finally we characterized concircular curvature tensor on paracontact metric (k, 𝜇)-manifolds with respect to Schouten-van Kampen connection.

We study rigidity results for the Einstein metrics as the critical points of a family of known quadratic curvature functionals involving the scalar curvature, the Ricci curvature and the Riemannian curvature tensor, characterized by some pointwise inequalities involving the Weyl curvature and the traceless Ricci curvature. Moreover, we also provide a few rigidity results for locally conformally flat critical metrics.

Let (M, $g$) be a compact oriented 4-dimensional Riemannian manifold whose sectional curvature $k$ satisfies $1{\geq}k{\geq}0.1714$. We show that M is topologically $S^4$ or ${\pm}\mathbb{C}\mathbb{P}^2$.

Let (M, $g$) be a compact oriented self-dual 4-dimensional Einstein manifold with positive sectional curvature. Then we show that, up to rescaling and isometry, (M, $g$) is $S^4$ or $\mathbb{C}\mathbb{P}_2$, with their cannonical metrics.
